Craig Brown previewed the Queen of the South replay tomorrow. To watch his press conference in full please click here.

 

"The latest news on the injuries is that we might have a couple of recoveries. Michael Paton trained today and Daniel Uchechi is training today. Hopefully we will get one or both of these guys in the squad and Kari Arnason is back after suspension so he will be fresh and ready for action. That apart I counted at the weekend we had a full team that was injured. A very strong team.

 

"This is the worst injury crisis I can ever remember in all the times I have been at football teams. I can't recall a time when we had 9 or 10 first team players injured.

 

"Clark Robertson's injury is not as bad as we first feared. It is more a twist in the knee. At first we thought he had done cartridge or ligament damage but thankfully he is walking about today and might be fit for the weekend. The fact the game at the weekend against St Johnstone is on a Sunday gives everyone an extra days rest.

 

"Chris Clark though, his injury is worse than first feared. I think he will be out for at least a month. It is a deep tear he has in his hamstring.

 

"Mitch Megginson played very well on Saturday and he will be in the frame again. If we had Mitch on one side and Daniel on the other side the team then looks as if it has more penetration with two flare players. We will have to see how Daniel does in training today. We will not be risking him if he is not 100% fit.

 

"This will be a very difficult game. We go down there though in a very positive frame of mind. We enjoyed most of the possession in the first game and I will if we do that again we will create chances and score.

 

"A lot of their players are very experienced and have played at the highest level so they can raise their game for a one off occasion. This game will be a cup final for Queen of the South. We have to make it a cup final for ourselves as well.

 

"Their manager has worked at a higher level than he is working at the moment and had great success so he is a very shrewd tactician and is astute. His tactics were sound up here but we should still have done better with all the possession and corners we had. We had more than he enough of the play to win the game."

STEPHEN HUGHES insists Aberdeen have the players to end their agonising 17-year wait for a trophy.

 

The Dons haven’t lifted silverware since their 1995 League Cup triumph but Hughes believes they can savour Scottish Cup glory this season.

 

Victory in tonight’s replay with Queen of the South at Palmerston would line up a clash with Motherwell in the quarter-finals.

 

And new signing Hughes believes Craig Brown’s side can go all the way.

 

Aberdeen have a history of humblings by lower-league sides – with Queens sending them to a shock defeat in the 2008 semis.

 

But Hughes, 29, said: “This is a good chance for us to progress and, while it will be difficult, we have the players to win.

 

“It will be about attitude as well as ability in this replay but the boys have been right up for every game since I came here.

 

“We have the quality of squad capable of being successful in the Cup. But I can’t just say that – it’s up to us to prove it.”

 

Former Rangers starlet Hughes was on the wrong end of a Cup shock in his days at Motherwell in 2008 but is confident of avoiding another painful defeat.

 

The midfielder said: “I have been involved in a few of these ties.

 

“When I was at Rangers nothing untoward happened because we always went out with the right attitude.

 

“But at Motherwell we lost to First Division Dundee and it was a hard to take.

 

“At Aberdeen, though, we aren’t thinking about being on the wrong end of a shock at Palmerston.”

 

Boss Brown suffered the worst result of his long dugout career when East Fife beat the Dons in this season’s League Cup.

 

But he shares Hughes’ belief that his side can atone by going all the way in the Scottish Cup. He said: “The players must be up for this tie and be committed throughout.

 

“I’m certain they will be. There’s a determination in the dressing room to get through to the last eight.”

 

Queens will also be fired up and stopper Chris Higgins admits dumping Aberdeen out would help him forget his SPL heartbreak.

 

The 26-year-old was all set for trips to Parkhead and Ibrox having helped Dunfermline get to the SPL.

 

But Higgins was left reeling when Pars boss Jim McIntyre let him go at the end of the season.

 

Now he wants to prove McIntyre wrong by dazzling against SPL opposition.

 

Higgins said: “It was hard to take but football is cut-throat and I haven’t a bad word to say about Jim.

 

“Hopefully, I’ll get there eventually. These games give you a chance to show you are capable of featuring at the top level.”

blah blah blah

 

Let's fucking see it then

Do players get paid for their interviews? I can't fathom why player after player would speak to the press and say the same thing over and over again which will only jinx us. 

 

Never mind the papers.. just win the fucking games.

It's part of their contract that they have to speak to the press on behalf of the club. Each week the club put forward one or two players to do press interviews (usually just the press conference covered on RedTV which is then butchered by the Evening Express and the other papers pick up those stories)

#cupfever

Aberdeen: Brown, McArdle, Reynolds, Considine, Mawene, Arnason, Megginson, Hughes, Fyvie, Vernon, Fallon.

That looks very very slow. Fallon and Vernon together are horrendous too.

That looks very very slow. Fallon and Vernon together are horrendous too.

 

Surely chalali and Vernon should be the choice pairing?!?

Langfield, Mackie, Uchechi, Magennis and Chalali on the bench.

 

Jack out altogether lending credence to the rumours about him having a fight with Knox at training.

Loads of attacking options on the bench.

Pity none of them can hit a barn door from five yards

Live chat anyone 

Surely chalali and Vernon should be the choice pairing?!?

 

Looked poor on Saturday when he came on.
